When we must leave old Greenfield High. Leaving where we toiled and worked. Leaving where we strove and shirked, Leaving where our teachers urged Us to curb desires that surged. Some hearkened unto these requests, Some still laughed behind their desks; Some of us really did our work. Some of us tried the tasks to shirk. And when we leave on this June day. To climb life’s steep and narrow way. Those who will be left behind, Are those who shirked and failed to mind. HARRIET D. KELLEY, ’30.

20 THE EXPONENT would like to have you correct. “The Exponent” is from Greenfield, Mass., not Greensboro, Mass. “The Dial,”—Brattleboro, Vt. Your exchanges are well written and your poems are exceedingly in¬ teresting. We like “The Souvenir,” and “My One Ambition.” “Impressions,”—Scranton, Penn. Your editorials are very good. We also like your “Prose and Verse” column. We cannot find your ex¬ changes. Where are they? “The Aegis”,—Beverly, Mass. Your magazine is good. It would be better if you would increase your exchanges. “The Cambridge Review,”—Cam¬ bridge, Mass. Why not have shorter exchanges but ’ ' ore of them? The cuts are very good and so are your various departments. “The Megaphone,—Franklin, Mass. The cuts of the Megaphone are very good. “The Call” is an ex¬ cellent story. More exchanges would improve your Exchange De¬ partment. “Murdock Murmurs” — Winchen- don, Mass. Your editorials are good. “The Interrupted Sliding Party” surely is a lively, interesting story. “Snap¬ shots” is interesting. “The Tatler,”—Northfield, Mass. The School Song “Our Old High” is original. The Literary Depart¬ ment is excellent. More jokes would be an improvement. “The Profile,”—Plymouth, N. H. Your Editorials and Literary De¬ partment are especially good. We hone to see you often. “High School Herald,”—Westfield, Mass. Your magazine is good throughout, especially the jokes. The cuts are excellent. “The Argus,”—Gardner, Mass. The cover is unique. The exchange department and grinds are very good. Come again! “Station B. H. S.,—Bristol, Vt. You have a good little magazine. Why not write about other maga¬ zines as you see them? “Students’ Review”—Northampton, Mass. The Literary Department is very good, in fact all departments are good. But where are your ex¬ changes? “The Enterprise”—Keene, N. H. Your magazine is very good. Your editorials are interesting and your stories are excellent but why not in¬ crease your joke and exchange col¬ umns. “The Sentinel,”—Barre, Vt. Your cover is unique, and your literary department is good. Why not increase your exchange depart¬ ment? It would help your paper. KORRIDOR KAT Although we experienced a fall “down the cellar stairs,” as a re¬ sult of our defeat at the hands of Northampton—we’re still strong in the fight! The Sophomores are sorry to hear that Rachel Tuttle has decided to leave G. H. S. Another loss! Joe O’Bryan ’28 has left us for the present. He plans to come back next year—plans which we hope will be fulfilled. Miss Greenfield! This is the title received by one of our fair haired Seniors. We all know who she is —Madeline Coleman, winner of the beauty contest at the Movie Ball. Madeline was given a surprise party by a large number of friends as a result of her success. Two departures from the Junior Class which are keenly felt are those of W. Shotte and J. McGrath. We hope they’ll decide, to return; if not, the best of luck! Catherine Mayer ’27 and Ella Dean ’29 are planning to attend a Unitarian Conference which will be held at The Isle of Shoals, Maine, the week of July 2. The Freshies lost several of their numbers last month. R. Johnston, J. Lahopski, B. Tuttle and A. Gibbs are missing from those who will so soon be “Grown-Up Sphomores.” Kenneth Bostley ’27 was the win¬ ner of the ten dollar prize offered for selling the most tickets for the faculty play. We are all sorry to hear that Walter Anson, captain of 1927 foot¬ ball team and president of the Stu¬ dent Council, has abandoned the ranks of G. H. S. “A fair exchange is no robbery.” This year we lost Francis Bowen ’29 to Gardner High School and now
